Italics means a character is thinking
Previous chapter:
Someone will pay for this... Johnny…he caused this, he drove her into a deserted area…he is to blame…
Now:
An extremely distraught Kai stormed out of what was Scarlet's hospital room and into Johnny's, the blonde was lying on the bed with a white dressing around his head.
"I WANT ANSWERS! WHAT HAPPENED LAST NIGHT!" yelled Kai, he gripped Johnny by the scruff of his neck, "YOU PLANNED THIS DIDN'T YOU!"
"Whoa! Kai… calm down, what's happened?" said Johnny, he held his hands up and feigned surprise.
"You know damn well, you must have planned it, taking her to some deserted road and then your little accomplices waiting," muttered Kai, he glared at the injured boy.
The blonde looked around to see that no one was in the room before confessing, "Yes I did, I planned the whole thing. From Tala's car breaking down to my car being beaten up, the only thing I didn't plan for was my accomplices double crossing me. I was meant to be the one who got to taste her!"
The Russian blunette had thought he was just being unreasonable and blamed Johnny for no real reason but because he was near the scene of the crime, this… this was completely unexpected.
"You have no idea what you've done do you?" said Kai, his eyes had narrowed to slits and he shook his head slowly. There was a ferocious aura to him that would frighten even the toughest of men, this included Johnny.
"No, but I have a pretty good idea of what Ben did to her," replied the boy lying on the bed, he had no idea that it wasn't what Kai meant at all.
"Where do I find him?" demanded Kai, grabbing the other boy's hospital gown.
"He'll probably be at the Greenhouse pub, he basically lives there…" murmured Johnny, starting to get anxious.
Kai let go of him and was about to run out of the room before adding, "she's dead, I hope you can't live with that."
There was a mad panic in the hospital hallways as Kai sprinted in the opposite direction of everyone else, he had to get to his car and to Ben as soon as possible, he wasn't sure what would happen once he got there but he just knew that it had to be done.
The Russian jumped into his sleek silver Mercedes and went 50km over the speed limit, within five minutes he had arrived at the red painted wooden doors of the Greenhouse pub. He breathed in to regain his calm and got out of his car, maintaining a normal pace he entered the pub, hand in pocket fingering the Swiss army knife he always kept with him.
He reached the bartender, "can you tell me who Ben is?"
The bartender looked at him for a minute before pointing to a medium-built, mousy haired man in his late 20s sipping on a beer, one of his regular customers.
Kai went over to him, "do you know a Johnny McDonald?"
The older man turned to look him in the eye, "what's it to you?"
The blunette scanned his opponent up and down once before punching him hard in the jaw, sending the slightly drunk man off his barstool. There were gasps around the bar and one or two screams, even at this time the pub was considerably full.
Unaware of what he was doing, Kai flipped out his pocket knife and went at the man on the ground, -stab- -stab- -stab-, he felt numb, as if his mind and body were disconnected. Fresh warm blood spurted everywhere, accompanied by a lot of screaming. No one dared to intercept this savage beast as he tore away the man beneath him, someone however was clear minded enough to call the police.
The last thing Kai remembered was a sharp sensation on his neck as a police officer zapped him with an electric baton.
The sharp sound of metal against metal woke Kai, his head felt like it had split in two, he was covered with blood but felt no pain apart from his headache. The boy looked towards the source of noise and saw a uniformed man staring at him in disgust while he led another, taller and more expensively dressed man to the bars which contained Kai. The man donned in Armani was his father.
"Kai, we will have you out of there as soon as possible." Said the blue-haired man, his tone of voice was flat and void of emotion, more like he was reporting company business than talking to his murderer of a son. It had always been like this, Kai's parent's never made much of an effort to raise him and even now they seemed to be unshaken by their son's actions.
The two-toned haired boy didn't look at his father, out of both shame and hatred. After a few moments the two men left, his father had obviously decided his company matters were too urgent to spare more time for.
Back to Kai in the cell (7 months later, where chapter 1 started):
"Mr. Hiwatari, do you know why you're here?" asked a bespectacled woman, looking too serious and uptight for her perhaps 28 years of age.
"Yes," replied Kai.
"Can you please explain to us why you committed the murder of fellow citizen Benjamin Reynolds?" she continued to question.
"I had found out at the time that he raped the girl I loved, which caused her to later on commit suicide. In a mad fit of rage I did what I did," explained Kai, remembering how his psychiatrist had told him to word this.
The woman nodded, "do you think that your time in prison has done anything to re-freshen your thinking?"
"Yes it has ma'am," answered the Russian, trying to sound as polite as possible.
"If released Kai Hiwatari, do you confess to never repeat the crimes you are currently being charged for?" asked the woman as her last question.
"I confess," said Kai, I don't think Scarlet can die twice he thought bitterly.
There was an awkward silence in the back seat as Kai sat alone in a black Beemer (BMW), the tinted window separating him and his father's driver also acted as a focal point for him to stare at while being lost in thought. The window rolled down.
"Master Kai, your parents are in America on a conference but I was given strict orders about where to take you." Explained the driver, "that is why you may see we are not heading towards the estate, your parents plan for you to go study abroad in Japan. They felt it best if you were as far away from this country as possible."
Japan? Thought Kai amused, he had nothing here anymore anyway. He and Tala had stopped talking soon after his jail sentence as the red-head's father prevented him from doing so. And anyway, there was nothing to talk to him about anymore... Japan… should be fun.
